The GeForce Go 7900 GTX was a mobile graphics chip by NVIDIA, launched on April 18th, 2006. Built on the 90 nm process, and based on the G71 graphics processor, the chip supports DirectX 9.0c. Since GeForce Go 7900 GTX does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The G71 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 196 mm² and 278 million transistors. It features 24 pixel shaders and 8 vertex shaders, 24 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). NVIDIA has paired 512 MB GDDR3 memory with the GeForce Go 7900 GTX, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 500 MHz, memory is running at 600 MHz. Being a mxm module card, the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 45 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. Rather it is intended for use in laptop/notebooks and will use the output of the host mobile device. GeForce Go 7900 GTX is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 1.0 x16 interface.
